The opening lyrics say it all
"You bought you a six string Gibson
You bought you a great big house
You try to sing like Muddy Waters
And play like Lightnin' sounds
You try to sing like Muddy Waters
And play like Lightnin' sounds
But since I blowed my harp
You feelin' mean and confused.
t got you chained to your earphones,
You just a white boy, lost in the blues."
You feelin' mean and confused.
t got you chained to your earphones,
You just a white boy, lost in the blues."
Always liked Lyle Lovett. I think his lyrics are great, mostly thoughtful, sometimes humorous and always accompanied by some great singers and musicians - whether it be the Large Band, or others. This tune is no exception. Acoustic guitars, Blues fiddle? or violin? great supporting vocals..
have a listen....
